I know talking is important here, but it is not easy to explain that you are ok with it and that you want it as much as her.
How to explain it to her that I am ok with this, as long as we find a guy with who we are comfortable.
Sounds like you are on the right track to making the best decision for you as a couple, whichever way it ends up going.

There can't be good communication without trust - if the other person doesn't completely trust that what you saying is true and you truly mean it and aren't saying it just to achieve your own ends, then you aren't truly communicating. Things may go along fine for a while, but when some issue occurs, those nagging doubts will come to the surface and there will be a problem, resentment or whatever. If you have that trust, which it sounds like you probably do, then everything will work out fine.
